Touch support for Onshape? SW 2014 is beating you guys here...

What is the timeline for putting touch based view manipulation controls into Onshape? I have a Surface and an XPS 15, both with touchscreens, and virtually every other CAD program I use can Pan, Zoom, and Rotate by touch input.

With a pen enabled, the ideal input is as below:

Single finger touch & drag: Rotate around first touched point
Two finger touch & drag: Pan
Pinch: Zoom

Right now, it isn't very usable without a mouse, which seems antiquated.

    @nhfoley I am very familiar with that and have been a Google Pixel user since the first launch.  We have this logged to bring our mobile behavior to the web.  I will add you to the improvement.

    Any updates on a timeline for implementing touch support on the web version? Would like to use my Surface Pro for this.  The trackpad is not ideal for cad work.
